ilpadre thinks about being there at 16:00.

According to the satellite image, it's in the main hallway, even under a glass roof. I'm going on a pre-expedition right now, mainly to check if I should risk a walk geohash tomottow. Koepfel talk 15:56, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
Got as close as 10 meters on the parking deck (the only place you'll get a somewhat decent GPS signal). Not a chance inside, one might attempt to count the windows from the exit to the parking deck to the hashpoint, assuming that the satellite images are correct. Inside, a level 3 Stacking achievement might be possible. Koepfel talk 18:01, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
I'd like to visit the hashpoint, but if I go I'll be there before 16:00. 15:00 to 15:30 for instance. --Fluxkompensator 22:49, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
I'll be at the mall from about 13:00, probably until it closes. I'll look out for you at 15:00, and be at the hashpoint (ground level) around 16:00 in any case. --ilpadre 09:44, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Will also aim for 15:00, maybe a little later. Koepfel talk 12:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Expedition Reports

Full report later (still no internet at home). According to Google Earth imagery (and an overlay with plans of the shopping centre), the coordinates were just at the edge of the ground floor central space, allowing us to stack ourselves three levels high.
